Ingredients

  • 60 g Bread, Italian
  • 20 g Water
  • 150 g Tomatoes, raw
  • 60 g Cucumber, raw
  • 30 g Onions, red, raw
  • 5 g Basil, fresh

Method

  1. Briefly soak the stale bread cubes in the water for a minute or two to soften slightly, then squeeze out the excess moisture.

  3. Whisk the olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper together and pour over the salad.
  4. Toss well and let stand for 15-20 minutes so the bread absorbs the dressing and tomato juices.
